E-mails

You can use "Email this user", but I will probably reply on your talk page, or the article talk page, as discussions should be open and on the record.
I have experienced problems with e-mails not being delivered, so please leave me a message on this page if I have not replied within 48 hours.

Broadcasted

The Wiktionary definition of Broadcasted states the use is sometimes proscribed, so it should not be used. The word also appears on Misplaced Pages:Lists_of_common_misspellings/B

Broadcasted appears in some dictionaries, but others, e.g. Chambers state "Sorry, no entries for Broadcasted were found".
Broadcast appears in all dictionaries, and should be used as COMMONALITY - "Misplaced Pages tries to find words that are common to all varieties of English".

A May 2023 search for Broadcast gave over 234,000 uses, compared with a search for Broadcasted which gave just 99.
Of these, 16 are redirects to "Broadcast" articles, 14 refer to a 2015 Canadian TV award and 5 relate to a 1924 cartoon. The rest are in quotations.

Happy New Year, Arjayay! In 2024, other editors thanked you 2390 times using the thanks tool on the English Misplaced Pages. This made you the #1 most thanked Wikipedian in 2024. Congratulations and, well, thank you for all that you do for Misplaced Pages. Here's to 2025! Mz7 (talk) 19:17, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
that's awesome. well done, @Arjayay!! Sm8900 (talk) 20:17, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
Thanks Mz7, and Sm8900 - That's actually the third time I have topped the list - does that disqualify me in the future? or do I get to keep it forever, like some sporting trophies?.
I remind myself of these when someone is telling me I am "the most hated editor on Misplaced Pages", or similar phrases, usually because I am reverting their deliberate errors or self-promotion.
Thanks again - and here's to next year ! - Arjayay (talk) 15:35, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
Not only were you first; you were the Wayne Gretzky of thanks - the #2 person wasn't even close! Congrats. Diannaa (talk) 23:01, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi Helpinghamster, I have no idea why you should choose to approach me, but I am afraid I know almost nothing about taxonomy. I suggest you look at the page histories of those articles, and choose an editor who edits such articles. Best wishes - Arjayay (talk) 17:33, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
